Application jled August 15, 1911. Serial No. 644,17*?.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, VVAi/rnn LUFT, residish Prussia, Germany7 have invented new and useful Improvements in Closures for Ladies Yaists and Blouses', of which the following is als ecication. l My invention Ihas for its object a new and elty of which consists in the manner of attaching press button members to strips or bands of textile fabric which is carried out in a simple and yet effective way.

I have illustrated my invention on the accompanying drawing on which- Figure l is a top view of one strip ofthe new closure, Fig. 2 is a similar view of the other strip, Fig. 3 is a cross' section along along line ll-H of Fig. 1, Fi s. and 6 are similar sections along lines lil-Ill and Like letters oi' reference indicate like parts in the drawings.

. Referring to the said drawings it will be understood that my improved closure consists of the two strips or bands a and'b made of any suitable material both strips being as narrow and as light as possible in order Ito enable the closure to be attached or both of said strips are connected the members c and d of press buttons for which purpose the strips are Woven partly in rm portions as at 'e and partly in pockets as at f the said pockets being closed at one longitudinal edge of the ribbons andopen at the opposite. Each pocket is provided with ,a hole g being woven or cut therein and having preferably firm edges in order to receive the members c and d oi' the press buttons one of which 'the stud Amember being inserted into the pocket and stuck through the hole-v The cap member d which con' able construction it being provided around .l

its opening. A: with a collar m and also introduced into the pocket of the strip or band b the collar m being stuck through the hole and thus the said member is also fitted 'in a close contact with the band.

.My new closure is of great importance to garments and allows a uick opening of the saine and may be inanuactured at very low costs. lt may be mentioned that instead of fitting the cap member with a spring the head of the stud member may be constructed with spring action.

What l claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

A garment closure comprising strips or bands,y a plurality of pockets in each of said bands, one longitudinal edge of each of said pockets being open, and each of said pockets havin an aperturev for f the reception of a press. utton.
